Senior Tech Recruiter · 10+ years across Europe · Eindhoven, NL
The candidates who got the offer weren’t always the best. They were the best prepared. The best informed.”
I didn't start on the hiring side. I started exactly where you are - navigating the Netherlands job market as an outsider with no network and no roadmap. I figured it out the hard way.
A decade later, I now sit on the other side of that table as a Talent Acquisition Business Partner in Eindhoven. And everything that I learned on both sides is what you’ll find in this newsletter, every Tuesday.
What's inside every issue
Why you're really getting rejected
The actual reasons — not the polite ones. And exactly what to do differently.
Salary trends & data — by role and country
Not posted ranges. Actual numbers from real offers made across Europe.
Visa sponsorship — who's actually doing it
Companies actively sponsoring right now vs. the ones wasting your time.
Roles before they hit the job boards
Shared early — before the inbox floods and the bar quietly rises.
How hiring decisions are actually made
Where strong candidates silently lose the room — and what separates the ones who don't.
